I am the great god Poseidon. I have been Watching Odysseus on his long journey. At first I liked him because he is a good leader and he worships me but that all changed when he went to the Island of the Cyclopes. He landed there with intention to steel and not only did he steel but he blinded my son. As if that was not enough as he was taunting him as he left the Island. I am also mad at the gods because they helped him get home safe and get his wife back. That dreaded Athena, always getting in the way. I also despise Odysseus because he tried to make his sins by sacrificing and preying to us gods but the things he has done will never be forgiven by me anyway or form he tries to make it up. Unfortunately all the other gods do not see things the way I do obviously. I really do not like Odysseus because of the thing he has done. I will do everything in my power to make sure he does not live to be a happy king of Ithaca. In fact I will try my best for him not to live
